WACO, Texas (theACC.com) – Top-seeded Wake Forest (40-1), the 2025 ACC Regular Season Champions and ITA National Indoor Team Champions, defeated No. 2 seed and the 2024 NCAA Champion TCU (27-4), 4-2, on Sunday, May 18, to capture the 2025 NCAA Division I Men’s Tennis Championship in Waco, Texas.

This marks the second NCAA team title for the Demon Deacons’ men’s tennis program, with their first coming in 2018. It also represents the 11th NCAA team championship in Wake Forest athletics history.

Wake Forest is the only program in NCAA men’s tennis to reach three national championship matches since 2018 and becomes just the second team to win multiple titles during that span, joining fellow ACC member Virginia, which captured back-to-back titles in 2022 and 2023.

The win caps off a historic season for the Demon Deacons, who set a program and ACC single-season record with 40 victories, surpassing the previous ACC record of 39 wins set by Virginia in 2010.

The victory also marked Wake Forest’s second win over TCU this season. The Demon Deacons previously defeated the Horned Frogs, then ranked No. 1, by a score of 4-3 in the 2025 ITA National Indoor Championship final on February 18.

In Sunday’s final, Wake Forest jumped out to a 1-0 lead by securing the doubles point with wins on courts two and three from the pairs of No. 26 Stefan Dostanic and Charlie Robertson and No. 18 Luca Pow and Luciano Tacchi, respectively.

The lead grew to 2-0 with a singles win on court one from Dostanic, before TCU got on the board with a three-set victory on court five.

The two teams traded the next two singles matches, as Pow scored a three-set win on court six for the Demon Deacons before the Horned Frogs picked up a victory on court three, putting the match score at 3-2 with two matches to play.

With the final two matches coming down to the wire in the third set, Wake Forest’s DK Suresh Ekambaram closed out his match on court two with three straight points for a three-set win and propelled the Demon Deacons to the 4-2 victory.

Dostanic was named the NCAA Men's Tennis Championship Most Outstanding Player.

This championship marks the eighth NCAA men’s tennis team title for the Atlantic Coast Conference - Virginia owns six (2013, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2022, 2023), and Wake Forest now holds two (2018, 2025).

Stanford, which joined the ACC this year, has won 17 NCAA men’s tennis championships overall.
